Overview
Nowsta has a robust suite of settings to help you run payroll accurately. Read on to learn how to adjust these settings.
Considerations
It is strongly recommended you review and adjust your account's overtime and payroll settings before generating any payroll report within Nowsta. You should also review all payroll reports to ensure there are no errors before running payroll.
How to adjust payroll settings
To start, go to the settings page of your Nowsta account and select Payroll.
On this page, you can optionally adjust the following settings:
Minimum Hours
When minimum hours count as hours worked, shifts under the minimum will have time extended to the minimum, which applies toward overtime. When they don't count as hours worked, shifts under the minimum will have bonus pay applied in payroll files, and the difference in hours will not apply towards overtime.
Minimum hours can be set up by default per position via the Positions page of your account or per department on the Departments page.
Break Time Policy
If breaks are paid, they will be counted toward overtime calculations. If not, any time spent on break will be deducted from a shift's total actual hours.
